The Roland-Garros eSeries is set to return in 2025 with an exciting new twist, inviting players worldwide to compete on the virtual clay courts of Tennis Clash. This year, the tournament introduces a thrilling team-based format, legendary tennis captains, and a €5,000 prize pool up for grabs. Key sponsors Renault and Mastercard are returning, offering players the chance to personalize their characters with official Roland-Garros 2025 outfits and utilize the exclusive Renault 5 Roland-Garros string.
When Does It Start?
The action kicks off in March, with the open qualifiers serving as the initial battleground for aspiring players to earn their spot in the finals. The qualifying stages will take place from March 6-11, March 20-25, and April 3-8, determining the elite contenders who will advance. The top female players from the first two qualifiers will secure their positions alongside the overall winners. The culmination of the tournament will see finalists competing at the Roland-Garros Tenniseum Auditorium on May 24th, with live audiences and a global stream on Twitch.
What’s New This Year?
The Roland-Garros eSeries 2025 introduces an innovative team-based format, moving away from individual competitions. Finalists will be organized into teams, each led by a prominent figure in French tennis. One confirmed captain is Gilles Simon, the former ATP world No. 6 and Davis Cup champion. Simon, who has been a commentator since 2023 and competed in the Top 8 in 2024, will coach one team. The identity of the opposing captain remains a mystery, but organizers have hinted that it will be a Grand Slam winner, adding to the anticipation.
Are You Excited for the Roland-Garros eSeries 2025?
Once the teams are established, the competition will intensify. The winning team from the initial phase will advance to the winner’s side of the double-elimination bracket, while the losing team will start in the loser’s bracket. Alessandro ΔLEX Bianco, the reigning champion, is set to defend his title and will be joined by the two Grand Tour finalists. With last year's event drawing 548,000 participants from 215 territories, expectations for this year's competition are sky-high.
Tennis Clash is also marking Women’s Day by offering a trip to Paris for the top female and overall players. Get the game from the Google Play Store and prepare for the Roland-Garros eSeries 2025—there's a lot to look forward to.
